What to do after a flood
If you are unfortunate enough to be flooded, here are a few pointers for when you first get home.
Insurance
If you are insured, contact your insurer. If possible take photos or videos of the damage. If you have lost your mobile phone or camera in the flood use a disposable camera or borrow a family members or friends.
Do not undertake any clearance or repair work until your insurer has given approval.
A loss adjuster will visit your house. Do not dispose of anything until your loss adjuster advises you to do so.
